negro vote is suppressed in the South, but is
of the opinion that nothing can or should be
done about it. because sensible men have
concluded that the evil cannot be cured by
politics, and that the only remedy is time"

frequently admitted to be sensible man, and
who is generally so regarded, thinks differ

WOMEN AS COMPOSERS.

What is womans place in the musical
worlda We mean as composers or creators.
That women are highly musical goes for the
saying. Their fine organization and emotional
temperament argue that. Also, there have
been many great musical performers among
women, great singers and players on various
instruments, great Interpreters of music,
great masters of technique and great teachers.
But has there been any female composer of
recognized merit and fixed place in the musical
world9 Perhaps the present is good time
to ask the question. The modern movement
at least one excellent result in opening the
way for the higher and broader education of
women, and greatly multiplying the avenues
of female employment. A woman may now
choose to study and work for it, and may
engage in almost as many different kinds of
employment. This enlargement of the field of
woman's education doubtless embraces the
A may obtain as thorough
a musical education as she is capable of re-
ceiving and is willing to work and pay for
Many of them do obtain very thorough
musical education and become distinguished
as performers, and teachers, and Interpreters
of music. But why is it that we have no
great female composer Of course there are
nice bits of composition by women, creditable
as far as they go, songs, waltzes, and other
small things, but these are not great works
They bear about the same relation to great
composition that a clever bit of newspaper
poetry or parlor verse does to a poem. There
have been great female poets, and novelists,
and few women have reached distinction as
mathematicians and scientists Why is there
no great female composerf Perhaps some of the
very bright and capable female musicians now
in the city can answer the question.
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1887-07-05

IN speech recently delivered by Gen. Ben
Butler to a class of law students he was
quoted as saying that he preferred to defend
a client who was guilty of the crime charged.
This, the General says, is wrong. What he
did say was that he did not wish to defend
man until he knew whether or not he was
guilty. very different matter, and less open
to criticism. 1t is question with many out
side Of the legal profession, however, whether
a lawyer is morally justified in defending
criminal, and General Butler tacitly admits
his readiness to do that. All he wishes to
know are the facts in the case.
